So, on Saturday, I wanted to go to the free Pranic Healing clinic and experience it for myself. However, once I let my mother know about it, my aunt, uncle, grandmother, and everyone else got interested.

Since I’ve been talking to them about it and they are interested in self-healing, naturally they wanted to tag along. My group of 1 turned into a group of six on Saturday, and it was, quite honestly, incredibly surreal that I had been able to talk such a huge and diverse group of people into the benefits of self-healing, and especially Pranic Healing. That they would come with me, mediate, and then see it for themselves, was nothing short of mind-blowing.

I had a smile on my face the entire time. 🙂 Only my aunt and I meditate and do yoga from this group, and the fact they are now so open to good, positive change, and to a higher, healing power, makes me feel incredibly blessed and happy.

Anyway, the entire thing was pretty fabulous. We did the Twin Hearts Meditation first in a group of 20 or more people for twenty minutes, then had our names called from a list to get healed/cleansed. The fact that the healers at DanceGarden in Los Angeles do this for free, and for whoever it is that drops by during the clinic, is inspiring. They are doing the work of God and teaching people the work of God. They also happen to be extremely nice and a lovely group of people, to boot.

My session was with a Healer named Claudia, and I could honestly feel the energy waves kind of gently move me as she cleansed by aura, and, at one point, I saw a burst of white light circulate in my vision – my eyes were closed – as she was putting in energy, I believe. She told me that I am very receptive and sensitive, afterwards, and we chatted about my decision to go into Pranic Healing.

To top it all off, I also met a Healer named Edward who was charismatic and affable and lovely all around, as well. I hope he will be my mentor, because I truly want to learn and heal people. (But first, fully heal myself, because there is still some tinkering to do.)

There is much more I want to say about this, but I shall do it later and in depth in my next post.

So, last night, before going to sleep, I remembered the controversial – back then – technique that Hill used whilst meditating, in order to bring clarity to himself (his thoughts, actions, and ideas) and gain a different perspective on all sorts of matters – whether it was financial, spiritual, or educational in nature, it was a collective mindfulness that he was seeking.

As I have said before, I try to keep an open mind and at least practice the things that I choose to write about, so that I comes from a place of experience, insight, and understanding.

But before marching ahead, let me quickly lay out what the Counselors Technique is.

Invisible Counselors Technique: First, you identify a definitive purpose. It can be about accomplishing a financial goal, becoming healthier, wanting to know more about a subject, or what have you. It can be about anything that you want to know and getter better insight on, or get a different perspective on. (I read about it a few months ago, so if this translation is a bit loose, forgive me.) Once you have clearly identified what topic you wish to gain a deeper understanding of, you imagine calling up a group of 5-10 influential and accomplished people in the that area you wish to address. For variety, you can have each person be successful in one certain area or aspect. Now, here’s the fun part: You get to choose any person, dead or alive, to come to your table, with you sitting at the head. People choose Einstein, Lincoln, Bill Gates, famous actors and actresses – you name it. If you admire that person and want to know something that you think they might be able to expound on to you (or drop a hint on), then you invite them to your table. Now, it’s fine if you believe that the body and spirit both cease to exist when the body dies, because you can still get something from this exercise. You can still, in a meditative state, have deeper access to your subconscious mind, and have it throw up some answers to you that you might’ve forgotten, or not even thought of applying in a certain way. It’s win-win. You thank them for joining you at the table, ask your question, and keep an open mind as stuff comes to you. It might be just one thing, so don’t push and get frustrated. You can also go person to person and focus on them to see what they might say/impart. Again, you might get one thing or you might get several. Either way, thank them for the help and close the “meeting,” and try it again another time.

I asked them what I needed to do, other than the obvious, to reach full financial freedom – my highest potential – doing what I loved.

Well, I was pretty surprised at what I got back. Let me write it down as such:

Stephen Co: Heal people.

Dr Dyer: Nothing was imparted.

Esther Hicks: Her voice rang out it my head, clearly, saying, “Teach people how to dream, so that they can become real.”

Vitale: Share what you know with people.

Steve Jobs: Nothing was imparted.

Einstein: Trace the map of the curve.

Now, I was amazed at what was imparted to me by Esther Hicks (or my subconscious), because it was beautiful, and sparked into my head by itself seemingly in a heartbeat of a moment.

Einstein, however, confused me. I know the Laws of the Universe and the energy field, but my real knowledge of it is, admittedly, limited. When I googled it in the morning, I found out that it had to do with time not being linear but actually being curved. It was pretty amazing, because, it didn’t entirely – at the time – feel like something I was controlling, as the thought came to me. I stuck with it and kept my mind open, as it trickled in.

In conclusion, I found it to be very helpful, and even comforting. I suggest you try it, because the answers or hints you might receive might be life-changing, and get you going again, if you’re stuck.

So I’ve been busy, busy, busy the past week and a half! I’ve decided to fully get involved with Pranic Healing (or Bio Energy Healing).

I’ve always wanted to be able to help people heal – mentally, physically, and spiritually – and I’m a natural teacher. Adding to what I already know is a wonderful way to do that, and I also absolutely love the scientific and spiritual elements that go into Pranic Healing.

I have so many friends and family members that I will be able to immediately help and heal by taking the courses myself and becoming an instructor/teacher.

It all comes down to this one thing: I want to help people. Pranic Healing is all about loving and healing yourself, then teaching other people how to do the same for themselves. You heal them, then they learn and they heal someone else, and it goes…

I’m reading Your Hands Can Heal You by Master Stephen Co and Eric B. Robins M.D., and it is one of my favorite books. Ever. The information contained therein is necessary for the perfect functionality of the body and soul. It should be given as a gift and taught in high schools. I’m going to buy a few more copies and give it to some of my loved ones. I already helped ease my grandma today by practicing simple Pranic Breathing exercises with her, and she actually felt better and more uplifted afterwards. She was in a great deal of pain before it.

The possibilities are endless.

I wish all of you well, dear readers. And I highly – HIGHLY – suggest purchasing the book for yourselves. It is an invaluable resource.

Before I go any further in outlining the steps to living a happier, healthier life, I have to – simply HAVE to – talk about one very important thing: Shortcuts.

Yes, shortcuts. What do I mean by it? Well, when you want something really, really badly, to the degree where you would, perhaps, do anything to gain it/do it… It leads you to make some very poor choices to either achieve it (pretty rare), or fall even further away from attaining whatever it is that you want.

You guys, we’ve all been there. I have been there. I have looked at some of these weird, mystical and odd shortcuts, and wondered if it wouldn’t hurt to give them a try. I have talked to others who have tried to jump some of the steps – or force some of the steps on the staircase into existence – only to really confuse themselves in the end, and make their minds even murkier in the process.

As one Proverb states: “The road to hell is paved with good intentions.”

Don’t fall off the path, don’t quit, don’t go looking in dark places… The waiting period is the most wonderful part, as frustrating as that may sound. It is the very moment where real changes are occurring (on a deeper, cosmic level), when your universe is reshaping and trying to conform to the new life you want to live. That you MUST live, because you are meant to.

You can’t cleanse and absolve your past by any shortcuts. I mean, I’m in my mind-twenties, and that, in and of itself, implies that I have 2 decades worth of cleansing to do (when you really think about it). I’m not even counting other situations/events where I might find myself in that I might need to whip out Ho’oponopono for. I will gain nothing by trying to quickly glean over everything from back then and slap on a band-aid, just to get ahead quicker. One of the ways that the unfolding and the biggest changes occur for you is by FACING your past, forgiving yourself, LOVING yourself, and feeling good and comfortable with totally moving on and being in the present. You MUST do this, before changing anything else in your life for the better. That is how you help attract more love, more prosperity, and more success to yourself.

After doing some more research about Gurus that help you open up chakras and the third eye and say certain phrases in order to “make” manifestation happen for you – I only saw trouble. Guys, I mean, I don’t know how smart it is to go around forcing yourself to become more powerful. The easiest way for Infinite Intelligence and for Cosmic Energy to work for you, is to go through the first few steps I have outlined in my blog. By not skipping these steps, you are ensuring that your mind becomes clearer, sharper, and more focused, and that inevitably leads to all of your cells and your body energy to vibrate at a higher frequency, leading to results. Through diligent work and focus, you reprogram your own mind – and thus, your own world – and the plants do grow, and the flowers do blossom. They bloom. I’m telling you, it’s a thing of beauty.

I’ve been doing more research on all of the energy fields in the body, and how one can open them up so that they are “rewarded quicker”… and the downsides of it isn’t really explained in sufficient enough detail for me. There is actually very little valuable information to be found, that isn’t half-formed and simple personal accounts. There isn’t much pertinent and scientific evidence out there that supports the real good that comes from doing this. From saying “Om” until your Third Eye chakra opens up, or by doing any of the other numerous things that some attempt. (Subliminal videos with the sounds and frequencies programmed in it, for one.)

Every person has their own path and I wish every one of them well, in doing whatever it is that they freely choose to do, but while science does support that certain sounds said as a mantra – or written down, in some cases – help shift your energy to call upon whatever it is that you are chanting, I, personally, would rather keep a mental line of delineation there. I tried it for a week for the sake of science, to keep an open mind (so that I know what it is that I am reporting on), but I only felt discomfort and a sense of wrongness. Now, that might not be the case for you, but for me, it didn’t feel right. It felt as though I was straying away from my natural path.

Some might say that the discomfort was simply because I wasn’t as naturally “open” to it, or that I didn’t want to explore it – that’s not true. I went into it with my eyes both open – no pun intended – and really wanting to dig my hands in there, do research, read/watch testimonials, try it a bit, and figure it all out. What I learned, was this: Don’t force these things, if you aren’t in that spiritual place, mentally and physically. Don’t force a change upon yourself that your body might not be ready for, and consider unnatural. (Kundalini Energy is one of them. The dangers of that are murky and unknown, but it can lead to nerve damage? And other unpleasant physical reactions? Yeah, don’t force it.)

Do you know what some people, who have, for example, forced their Third Eye open, say? It’s really exciting, they feel as though they are at the right place, at the right time, more often, but some also report that they hear things and perhaps see things that they weren’t prepared to see. While some Gurus try to sugarcoat is as a gift, I don’t know how thrilled I’d be to start seeing spirits and having them come to me/talk at me.

Some Gurus say that opening up the Third Eye, opens up the entire cosmos/dimensions to you. That sounds, theoretically, fascinating. It also sounds terrifying.

Also, one other thing: There is not enough warnings attached to these practices, for people who might’ve accidentally stumbled upon these videos, articles, etc. to heed to. I like parsing things out and finding out all of the working parts to something, and for me, personally, the lack of information about these energies you activate that can possibly negatively affect you, makes me think it is perhaps wiser to stick to things that are easier to understand and that you have full control over; mentally, physically, and spiritually.

I have been wanting to post about this for a week, but really haven’t found the right way to say it, so that I don’t offend anyone who might practice this and feel no adverse affects. The certain lack of information about the entirety of the subject – Third Eye, Universal Sound Mantras and what have you – also suggests to me that the vast knowledge necessary to quantify and qualify it, is still in its infancy stages.

I just ask that you all keep your own safety, health, and well-being in mind, when you dabble with the unknown. I wish you all well, truly.

And, whilst I was writing this post, I remembered and searched through my copy of Wallace Wattles’ The Science of Getting Rich, and found this gem (the book covers faith, mind programming, and other wonderful information):

“Also, postpone your investigations into the occult. Do not dabble in theosophy, Spiritualism, or kindred studies. It is very likely that the dead still live, and are near; but if they are, let them alone; mind your own business.

Wherever the spirits of the dead may be, they have their own work to do, and their own problems to solve; and we have no right to interfere with them. We cannot help them, and it is very doubtful whether they can help us, or whether we have any right to trespass upon their time if they can. Let the dead and the hereafter alone, and solve your own problem; get rich.”

–Wallace Wattles, The Science of Getting Rich

And if you Google the book and author, you will find a free link to the book as the second link. I HIGHLY recommend reading it, dear readers. It is jam-packed with amazing and useful – life-changing – information that Wallace Wattles observed and wrote about in the early 1900s. It’s one of my go-to books, even to this day. Crazy, right?

I hope this information was helpful and interesting, at the very least, and helped you get a better understanding of the subjects. If anyone has any stories to share, perhaps of their own experiences, then please feel free to share. I really and truly want to understand everything that these subjects encompass, so that I can better help and inform people, in a more objective way. I love information, I love sharing what I know from personal experiences, endless researches (from scientific journals, published authors/researchers in those niches, etc.) and whatever else that might be available to me.

Love,

Ani

P.S. I do believe in spirits and what have you, so that’s why I feel it is important that people get better informed. I also wrote this especially for people who are new to Spirituality, Mysticism, Laws of the Universe, and anything else that might pertain to those categories – and they might be looking for an “easier” way of doing things or looking for shortcuts, without doing the research and taking their full well-being into account. It can be tempting and seductive to jump in without any prior experience and knowledge, I know.

P.P.S. I made my mind up two weeks ago to finally learn to play the piano (I have been wanting to since I was a child), and my mom called me to tell me that she saw a commercial for piano lessons locally, and that she already called the lady – who sounded nice and accommodating – and set me up with private lessons starting next week! My mom also happens to know this woman from childhood, and she was a wonderful piano player (received awards, etc.), and… once you figure these things out, you realize that coincidences don’t exist. You create EVERY, SINGLE THING.
